I call Bullshit

I hate shady shit.

The seller lists this item with a $30 Buy It Now.

Bane 7″ grn sXe Converge Have Heart Verse test press?

If you really thought it was a bane test press, would you set such a low Buy It Now price? No, I don’t think so. Seriously, give me a break. Quit trying to trick kids into buying your record based on assumptions you obviously know are not true.

As for this EP, it was released in 98 or 99 by The Life Recording Co (Dalbec’s label). It is a 4th press that was limited to 400 (I think). 100 of the records were stamped, the rest were not. The green vinyl varies a lot too. Some green is a super dark, while others is super light. I haven’t seen any translucent ones, but I wouldn’t doubt that some exist.

Anyone know who supplied the info in the auction that there were 5 test presses of this made? I ask because I have one, and if a random dude in VA has one, I figured there were more.

Still not for sale though.

It wasn’t me. But I bet we could get Dalbec to weigh in here.

As if Dalbec would even know! Don’t forget, a couple of years ago he tried telling me that the green vinyl was pressed at the same time as the yellow vinyl.
